Arranged by the University of Gothenburg’s Animal Welfare body (Djurskyddsorganet), this seminar will focus on the latest research from the University of Gothenburg based on the 3Rs, presented in English.

This will be followed by a presentation on the newly launched e-service regarding ethical applications, and a short presentation will be held by the Swedish 3R Center, presented in Swedish.

Previous NC3Rs grant holder Lynne Sneddon will be presenting her work on refining experiments using aquatic animals: assessing and alleviating pain. Lynne's NC3Rs project grant focused on the detection, assessment and alleviation of pain in laboratory zebrafish.
